All in good time. You show that it’s okay to redesign track plan as you continue to improve operations. You inspire and I’ve thought out some of your ideas for use in my future layout as well. Keep up the good work, Mike.
Hi Mike , looks like you have been busy. I think it looks good . Keep up the good work. Looking forward to the next update. Thanks for sharing. Have a good weekend. 😎😎 👍
"I can see my trains running" is so much more satisfying than "I can hear my trains running". I like the change a lot, (especially when it's cigar bands and war bonnets!)
The "King of Kato"! I learned a lot from you before and started my layout. Nothing you really cannot do with Unitrack. And the track itself help line everything up and eliminate bumps and such. Awesome work and looking forward to the next vid. Have fun! I loved the train runs over new area 😊
Well it looks like you got a lot accomplished their Mike, anything to make your life a lot easier I understand where you're coming from with this redesign, cuz it's getting old thing is for the birds 👍👍
Hey Mike, I like it. The track plan worked out perfectly. I don't remember you running trains over 14 to 16 cars on the ACT III layout and the trains looked great. I can't wait to see the next update.
Hey Mike...those were really nice additions to the track plan. You seem to have the ability to see what things can be and make them actually work! Take Care!
Outstanding! Looks better than before! The best part is you show us not to fear redesign to improve operations! And, you've still got the ability to run trains "The Long Way!). 😏And my constant tendency to "detect" caused me to spot that in the last scene, you already had the front fascia removed! Well done, Mike! PS: really loved the F units on parade! (And, of course, the loverly GP30s!) (And their trains!) Oh, and, thanks fer havin' us!
Looks good. 👍 I applaud your willingness to tear out and re-work a section that's "done". I've made that decision a few times myself, and the results have always pleased me and made my layout better. Of course, an added bonus is the look of dismay on wifey-poo's face when I tear out a "finished" section to make improvements... Lol 🙀😹
Lol thats fine with me i was thibking you might try it again lol too funny your layout looks amazing im glad you figured out and did what you wanted!! Have a wonderful weekend!! 💓❤
Looks great so far Mike - I was one who thought it was an either/or decision, but if you go ahead with the staging as well, that will be terrific! Cheers from sunny Melbourne, Australia...
By the way, I have three DCC Sound steam locomotives in my fleet. All are British Southern Railway locomotives. There are more to come. I model in 00 scale and use both digital and analog trains on my Dad’s Army layout.
Wow what a productive guy! Great progress. Can't wait to see how it continues. One question, who makes that guard rail they you used or did you build it? It looks very good. I've had a challenging making them is why I asked. Have a great weekend and thank you for all your videos and work
Great work! Layout is looking good. I am hoping I can create scenery that comes as close as possible to the level you achieve on your layout. We shall see if I can achieve that. I am almost done glueing down all of my foam. Then I can start running my feeders again. I will get there soon enough. Any luck on selling the truck yet. I am looking forward to seeing what Mustang you end up with. I would go more the v8 option over the v6 you mentioned but that’s just me. Fords V8s in the mustangs have all been good. The ecoboost I have heard is problematic. The v6s I think are ok from what I recall but just miss the sounds of the V8. End of the day it is your choice and as long as it makes you happy go for it.
Great video again , you are a machine with a V8 !!!! I like the changes very much , on my layout when I install tracks or make changes I always check for derailment with either a KATO SD90 or with a finicky steamer . Did you tried your steamer ?
You have to like it when a couple of ideas come to fruition and it all works.
I do, for sure !!!
All in good time. You show that it’s okay to redesign track plan as you continue to improve operations. You inspire and I’ve thought out some of your ideas for use in my future layout as well. Keep up the good work, Mike.
Thanks Mac !!

Your track plan changes look great Mike. It was a lot of work, but the results were worth it.
Track plan looks great. Runs great and double crossovers really make it all work. Be interesting what you do with the staging part of the plan.
The "King of Kato"! I learned a lot from you before and started my layout. Nothing you really cannot do with Unitrack. And the track itself help line everything up and eliminate bumps and such. Awesome work and looking forward to the next vid. Have fun!
I loved the train runs over new area 😊
Thanks Brother and Check Him out on his channel !!!
Mike, you're really moving getting things done! Truthfully, Mike, do you have magical elves helping you out!? 😃
Nope , just a busy brain !!!!
You've been a busy busy guy. I like the idea that you are still going to do the staging yard. The Best of Both Worlds
Good to see your plans have worked out for the main line. It’s looking good!
You've come a long way, Mike. Thanks for using 2 of my 'suggestions' along the way 🙂 IT'S REALLY COMING TOGETHER ! ! ! ! 🙂
Glad to see how it coming along, nice. Looking forward to see how the snagging happens. 😮
Well it looks like you got a lot accomplished their Mike, anything to make your life a lot easier I understand where you're coming from with this redesign, cuz it's getting old thing is for the birds 👍👍

LOL , You caught me !! The video would have been WAY too long.
Mike, that change made a big difference. I like how both mains now run above the layout. I like depot , looks great.
Your progress on the changes looks like they are working out without any trouble. Keep up the great progress! ~Tony
Thanks so much Tony!
Well done Mike, it was worth doing that improvement! Looking forward to seeing the scenery adjustments.
Thanks !!
Nicely Done Mike Don’t touch it!
Very well done update Mike. You certainly have done a lot in a very short time....John
Hi Mike. A great plan that came together perfectly. Well done.
Thanks Norman !!
Looks good. 👍

Great update Mike. Really love the changes. Thanks for sharing. Dave
Thank You Dave !!!
I like the sounds you’re using in your locomotives. Although it doesn’t quite mimic the real thing, it’s a very good sound chip you’ve used.
Looks great so far Mike - I was one who thought it was an either/or decision, but if you go ahead with the staging as well, that will be terrific! Cheers from sunny Melbourne, Australia...
Thanks so much Greg !!

I agree
You have been busy, Mike, haven't you? Nice work 👏 👍
Those track work changes look good. Hopefully they worked out as well as you wanted them to
Thanks Brother. You are way behind on videos though ! LOL
@@N-Scale hahaha yes I am
That is the thing about KATO track it is very fast.
Great video! Like me!
It’s a gorgeous layout, but I could never fit it into my tiny bungalow!!
Never Rush It Mike It will Be Ok. I Will Be Finishing My Bachmann Layout in May After That my N Scale Track will Be Finished Yeah.
We NEVER finish
Looking great. I noticed the stucco on the station, did you ever do a how to on how to do stucco?
I do not think so but it is a good idea !!
Great video again , you are a machine with a V8 !!!!
I like the changes very much , on my layout when I install tracks or make changes I always check for derailment with either a KATO SD90 or with a finicky steamer . Did you tried your steamer ?
Nope Not Yet.
Good idea take a second look if you have any questions, that is the only way to get answers.
What gauge is this? Is it H0 or N?
N
You Will Not Touch It At All!
